I’m so sorry Cavetex subscribers! I meant to send this reply only to David and I didn’t realize it went to the whole mailing list. 😳 (actually, I’m on a couple of his email lists and never noticed notice this came from CaveTex) My sincere apologies for more non-caving related emails/oversharing old bar stories on the listserv.
